April is a make-or-break month for ONE Championship. Over four straight Wednesdays, the promotion will offer up its best talent to American sports fans in the hopes that the brand can finally gain a foothold in the market.
One month should not be a be-all, end-all litmus test to prove that the organization is the international player it claims to be.
